10 random facts about me

1 - I hate the phone with a burning passion of a thousand suns. I don't even answer our home phone - ever. I figure if it's important enough they'll leave a message. I don't like to give out my cellphone number unless I'm sure the person will text rather than call. Please don't ever phone me!

2 - I shave my legs every day, winter and summer.

3 - I have to have water to drink when I'm eating chocolate, and milk to drink while I'm eating chocolate cake.

4 - I can reach all of my back and never have to ask anyone to scratch an itch for me, or scratch it against other things. I can just use my own nails.

5 - I taught myself to read before I went to school.

6 - I only had two wisdom teeth on the bottom, none at the top, but they were both impacted and growing horizontally instead of vertically.

7 - I have to lie on my front to fall asleep - if I try to fall sleep while lying on my back I feel like I'm falling. If I manage to fall asleep on my side I will wake up after 20 minutes. I even somehow managed to sleep on my front the whole way through both pregnancies!

8 - My first job was selling T-shirts from a kiosk in a mall (The Waterfront in Cape Town).

9 - My feet are wide at the front and I have very narrow heels, which makes buying shoes tricky. Yes, they are like flippers. This is why all of my shoes have a strap over the front - my narrow heels mean I walk out of shoes that don't have a strap.
